Good Indian is much more satisfying to me than good Chinese. But it's so rich that it's not something I'm going to reach for often. Chinese can be a comforting simple food, a nice dinner.
 
Voted Indian, but both have there place. Tikka Masala.mmmmm.
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

This.  However, I'd take Japanese over either.

It's kind of funny, but I got into Chinese first, and still like it but when I first really got into Indian the food was kind of like an orgasm for your mouth.  I'd go mmm mmm mmm mmm, etc. etc. while eating.  I don't even remember when I got into Japanese.  Most in the US experience it in a steakhouse.  Which I still like to do on occasion, but sushi tends to be what I go for first these days.

I'm new to indian and I am learning to love a lot of it. But I've been eating Chinese (aka Canadian Chinese) all my life and Western-Canada style ginger beef is one of my all time favorite dishes and has been for as long as I can remember. I know it probably has 0 nutritional value though so I don't eat it too much.

Well there's a dish new to me.  But 0 nutritional value has to be a bit of a stretch if it's any good.  You get protein from the beef and ginger has some good nutritional benefits.  Of course not knowing what's in the rest of this dish, who knows.  Most dishes like that throw in some stir fried veggies.

Indian. Why? - they don't disappear leaving no trace after a single fart (unlike Chinese)

What about if Indian people choose to go out for an English meal?

I just meant that I'm hungry again after about an hour having eaten Chinese food but still feel 'full up' several hours after an Indian curry, that's all. Perhaps my 'solo for unaccompanied blowhole' wasn't appropriateEmbarrassed

Chinese food can be horrible depending where you are.  If you spend any time in the New York City, tri state area,
you would really enjoy the Chinese food there.
 
I voted for Chinese.  I can't handle that red-hot spicy Indian food, it makes my %^$$#@ burn, no lie.

That's what you get for not sticking to a strict lupin diet. Wink

All kinds of super hot Indian curry is the best food ever, and I have a huge bag of naan that I munch on frequently.

Just wait until you manage to chew through the bag and make it to the naan. Tongue

I used to watch the Family as a kid.  No Vinton present.  I do have a DVD of The Monkee's Head.  Watched them more often than the Partridges.  These days the only Partridge I have an interest in is Andy.

Impossible choice for me. Both are great. Nothing beats Vietnamese food though. Smile

LOL I sure am. A good pho is just about my favourite thing on earth. Especially when it's spicy.
